I think one of the confusion is that you are trying to avoid copying the
properties.
We really should duplicate the buildrequest and change property in
buildproperties, and do not try to link the tables apart from the "source"
column. This is data duplication, but as buildproperties are allowed to
change where ever they comes, this makes the problem much more simple

build_property should be uncacheable until the build has finished, and then
the updates should be sent via mq.
